Amritsar to Chittagong flights — quick facts

Routing Amritsar to Bangladesh's port city

There is no direct ATQ–CGP service, so the trip is built around an eastern Indian gateway. The smoothest pattern is Amritsar–Kolkata (often via Delhi), then a short Kolkata–Chittagong hop — IndiGo and Bangladeshi carriers operate this leg. Alternatively, route through Dhaka (DAC): Biman Bangladesh and US-Bangla run frequent 45-minute DAC–CGP shuttles, so feeding into Dhaka from Delhi works well too. Either way, plan on one international border crossing en route.

Why the advance visa comes first

This is the single most important point: Indian passport holders must obtain a Bangladesh visa in advance through the High Commission or an IVAC (Indian Visa Application Centre) office — there is no visa-on-arrival for Indians. Processing typically takes about 5–7 working days, so apply 2–3 weeks before travel. Keep your itinerary, hotel booking and return ticket ready for the application. Do not book non-refundable flights until the visa is granted; check our visa guide for the current checklist.

Journey time and connection planning

Via Kolkata you can be in Chittagong in about 7–8 hours with a single tidy stop; the CCU–CGP or CCU–DAC–CGP legs are short. Via Dhaka with a longer Delhi layover, total time stretches to 10–11 hours. The DAC–CGP segment itself is only around 45 minutes. If you self-connect through Dhaka, leave at least 3 hours to clear Bangladeshi immigration and re-check bags between an international arrival and a domestic departure.

Fares and seasonal pricing

Because the route stitches together short legs, fares stay moderate. As a guide, economy round-trips typically run ₹22,000–₹40,000 depending on season and how directly you route. The cheapest window is the May–September monsoon, when demand dips and combinations can fall toward ₹19,000. The November–February dry season — the most comfortable time to visit — carries the highest fares, so book 4–6 weeks ahead if you travel then.

Best months to visit Chittagong

November to February is ideal: dry, pleasant 18–28°C weather suited to the port, the hill tracts and nearby beaches like Cox's Bazar. April–May is hot and humid, and June–September brings heavy monsoon rain — cheap fares but waterlogging risk. Cyclone season peaks around April–May and October–November in the Bay of Bengal, so track weather advisories if you travel at the shoulders.

Currency, baggage and arrival

The currency is the Bangladeshi taka; carry some US dollars to exchange on arrival and a card for hotels. Indian and Bangladeshi carriers usually include 20–30 kg checked baggage in economy, but confirm per segment as the short legs can differ. Shah Amanat International (CGP) is about 12 km from central Chittagong — a 25–35 minute taxi or CNG auto ride. If Dhaka suits your plans, compare our Amritsar to Sylhet guide.

Who flies this route

Amritsar–Chittagong is mostly a business, trade and family-visit corridor rather than a tourist hop, given the port's commercial weight. The lack of a non-stop and the advance-visa requirement mean it rewards planners: lock the Bangladesh visa, then build flights around Kolkata or Dhaka. For leisure, pairing the city with Cox's Bazar — the world's longest natural sea beach, a short hop or 4-hour drive away — makes the longer journey worthwhile.
